With operation of app-based taxis in the national capital on Delhi government's radar due to surge pricing, some officials of taxi-aggregator Uber Thursday met Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and apprised him of his business model.

"Some officials from Uber Thursday met the Delhi Chief Minister at Delhi Secretariat and discussed a range of issues including surge pricing, diesel cars and permits," an official said.

Sources said that apart from surge pricing, government has objection on per minute charge and vehicles which are registered outside Delhi. Transport minister Gopal Rai Thursday again clarified that ban on surge pricing will continue.
